TPLink C4000 looses connectivity to WAN, Fails to get a WAN DHCP assigned address

About every 6-8 days, my router looses connectivity to my Fiber ISP, and when it fails, it doesn't negotiate a new WAN Public IP Address. In order to preserve the SYSLOG, I do not reboot the router, but rather just UNPlug the Internet cable from the TP Link router going to the Fiber Termination box and then plug it back in. Voila, it gets a new Dynamic WAN IP Address and all is good. With out me being here, I'm very learing of leaving and not being able to get to my devices when remote and this 'deadly embrace' of WAN DHCP address assignment occurs.
TP0Link Tech support says to reset the modem... blah..blah..blah.... Been there previous times, no use.
I'm thinking on checking off the option box for "Get IP using Unicast DHCP" rather than the UDP structure for DHCP currently in use by this TPLink Archer C4000 router.
Anybody else loosing their WAN connectivity recently?
No power issues here, and ISP says "It is your home router not working correctly".
